The venerable K2 Slayblade Wide Snowboard has been in K2’s lineup for four years, and it still rocks hard. This board gets an upgrade for 2013 with the addition of Tweekend™ rocker shaping at the tip and tail for more stability when you’re pushing the limits. The K2 Slayblade Wide Snowboard remains the ride of choice for aggressive riders wanting a stiffer board for high speed strength and power.

NEW Tweekend™ - Tweaks the tip and tail of K2 boards by extending the rocker curvature all the way out to the ends, giving you more surface area to press, float and land on.

Flex

The K2 Slayblade Wide Snowoard is for advanced riders with big feet who like to push their limits on all terrain types on a stiffer board

All Mountain

Construction

Hybrilight™ Construction - Features a thin, constant thickness sidewall designed for maximum performance and minimal material usage. The result is a lighter snowboard with significantly less waste produced in manufacturing.

Ollie-Bar™ - Made with a secret lay up of carbon, Kevlar and glass layers, the ollie bar is positioned in the center of the board between binding inserts. This makes for stronger ollies and pressing power that actually come from the more critical backbone center section of the board.

Sidecut

Twin geometry for equal ease riding forward or switch

Hyper Progressive Sidecut - A number of different radius' are blended together flawlessly from mellow in the tips, to more aggressive in the center. The result is a super predictable feel that never hooks. Responsive at high speeds and smooth enough to butter your way from peak to peak.

Core

WH4 - With a greater percentage of K2's Honeykomb technology that goes into the WH3 core, it's engineered to maintain durability at minimal weight.

NEW Bambooyah™ Blend - A skate-derived horizontal bamboo laminate that adds incredible strength and stands up to brutal beatings.

Carbon Web™ II - Designed specifically to enhance K2's Baseline technology and brings the pop and snap of carbon closer to your bindings for max ollies and control in every situation.

Terrain:All-Mountain

All-Mountain

All-mountain snowboards are designed for exploring the whole mountain. They are your go-to for a snowboard that will do anything. They feel at home on groomers, powder, park runs and almost anything in between. The vast majority of snowboarders choose all-mountain boards for their great versatility. If you’re just getting started or unsure of exactly what you need, an all-mountain snowboard is a great choice.

Ability Level:Advanced-Expert

Advanced-Expert

Whether you charge the steepest lines, carve with race-like precision, hit the biggest jumps or halfpipes; advanced to expert level skis/snowboards are for the more aggressive rider. You will often find the addition of layers of metal, carbon, bamboo, or other stringers in these. These features work to make a stiffer ski/snowboard with more power and rebound.

Rocker Type:Flat

Flat

A flat profile is just as you’d expect – flat from near the tip of the board to near the tail. This shape splits the difference between camber and rocker, with more forgiving turnability than a fully cambered board and more precise edging capability than a fully rockered one

Ability Level:Intermediate-Advanced

Intermediate-Advanced

The majority of skiers/snowboarders fall into this level, whether you like to carve on groomers or venture into the powder. These skis/snowboards may be somewhat wider than beginner-intermediate skis, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Depending on the type of ski, intermediate-advanced level skis may have full camber, rocker, or some combination of the two.

Happy to have purchased this board. I am tall, have larger feet and it fits me perfectly. I looked in to the measurements a lot and I'm glad to have found the fit with this board. Take the time with the measurements because it will make your ride so much better.

My second slayblade and much like the first takes me steep/deep and in the tight spots and bumps. Great all mountain balance stable with plenty of float. I don't get to the park much but it seems comfortable in the pipe too. Just a great board for exploring and working the mountain.

The board is awesome. Smooth ride and smooth looks. The glossy black paint looks awesome but gets farmered up when my goofy footed buddy dings his board into/onto mine when we get on the lift and I'm alwasy like, hey brah watch your board you dingus.

To me this board is water to a man dying of thirst. I wear size 12 and trying to find a board where my toes and heels don't dig in on a carve is tough. This is a true wide board. It has excellent controllability at speed.

Great board, dispite being flat it still holds and edge and keeps the percision of a full camber. That being said you are not as liekly to catch your edge on this. Great on jumps, lots of pop, and still floats through powder well. As far as toughness goes I have no idea. I've be babying it since i got it.
